Oscar Entries 2021

Submissions to the 94th Academy Awards for Best International Feature Film

Submissions are open now to the 94th Academy Awards for Best International Feature Film. Last year there were 93 submissions from around the world. The Oscar went to Denmark's Another Round directed by Thomas Vinterberg. 

The category was previously called the Best Foreign Language Film, but this was changed in April 2019 to Best International Feature Film, after the Academy deemed the word "Foreign" to be outdated.

The deadline for submissions is extended until November 2021. The Academy is scheduled to announce a list of eligible submissions in November 2021 from which 15 finalists will be shortlisted on December 21, 2021. The final five nominees will be announced on February 8, 2022. The winner will be announced on March 27, 2022 at the Oscar ceremony held at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood.
